1886 – Practice until you die

In the beginning of the time that Ye Xiao had returned to the Monarch’s Hall, he spent every day accompanying several beautiful women, living free and unfettered like an immortal. One could say that it wasn’t just in name but also in reality that he was beastly to the opposite sex.

A whole month later, he finally once again started to pay attention to the affairs of the Monarch’s Hall, inquiring about everyone’s advancements in practicing martial arts.

After one question, he erupted in thunderous fury!

He was like a completely different person compared to before when he was calm and contented with certain members of the opposite sex!

“Are you a herd of pigs? Saying that you are pigs is an insult to the pigs. Pigs would be exterminated if they were this stupid and lazy!” Ye Xiao roared. “You’ve been devoting yourself to practice for so long and you’ve unexpectedly promoted only this much? Unexpectedly, you’re still inferior to my promotion, a person who walked outside for a stroll! You… you all simply are… I’m so disappointed!”

“Chi Huo!”

“Your subordinate is present!”

“Before I left, what was your rank?”

“Undead Stage, rank 2 peak.”

“And now?”

“Your subordinate has currently arrived at Undead Stage rank 5 peak… this kind of progress… actually is already very quick…”

Regarding his progress, Chi Huo was still very proud. Inside this several years of time, he was capable of raising his cultivation level from Undead Stage rank 2 all the way until he soared to Undead Stage rank 5. This kind of progress could be said to be absolutely incomparable, enough to show disdain for the world!

“Bullshit! You have this kind of progress yet you still dare to be self-important?! Not convinced? You take a look at me! Take a good look at me, think again, what was my cultivation level when I left?”

“When Senior left, you were precisely Eternal Life Stage Peak.”

“And now?”

“This… this… your subordinate cannot tell by looking…”

“Look carefully, look seriously, look carefully and seriously!”

“It seems to have an indication that it exceeds your subordinate’s realm… Senior, could it be that you have already arrived at rank 6? Or have you hit rank 7?”

“Idiot! This seat is already Undead Stage rank 8!”

Chi Huo staggered and fainted on the spot…

It wasn’t that Chi Huo’s mental ability to bear it was not good, but rather that the current situation was really too savage, too strange, too incomprehensible, too unimaginable, and even too mysterious and fantastical, too mythical! To not faint, it would really be too hard to unburden the pure shock that he felt as a result!

“Bu Xiangfeng!”

“…”

“Meng Youjiang!”

…

“Flower King!”

“…”

“Black Demon White Dragon Qiu Luo!”

“…”

“Where are my Seven Stars War Generals?”

“…”

…

…

After a round of scolding, many of the Monarch’s Hall’s upper leadership had collectively been scolded for a spell and told they were inferior to dog poop. Inside Ye Xiao’s mouth, the entire gang of high level Monarch’s Hall members were all just inferior to trash. He gave them a big pile of resources and a super cultivation atmosphere, even if a pig came to cultivate it would be faster compared to them. How could they still not have gone looking for a tree to hang themselves on? It went without saying that staying in this world was a disgrace…

In order to show that these many subordinates could bear it, as well as to show that his own progress wasn’t a special case, Ye Xiao directly pulled out Jun Yinglian and Su Yeyue to use as examples.

“You have a look, these two are precisely my wives. This is my first wife, who followed me to ascend together to the Human Realm Upon Heavens. Up until now, when all is said and done, it’s been about 56 years, and she is already Undead Stage rank 5… This is my second wife, all of you open your eyes real wide and take a look. My second wife has only cultivated for a little more than twenty years, compared with me it’s still shorter, but right now she’s already Undead Stage rank 3 peak and it’s possible she’ll break through again at any time… Again, look at you all… Each and every one of you, how long have you cultivated? You’ve lived a big handful of years, and yet unexpectedly you continue to be inferior to two little girls. Have you lived your whole life among dogs? Still don’t know, you still want to quibble, do you still feel good? Do you really feel good?”

“In addition, your subordinates are even trashier than you all! Are you all sleeping every day?”

“You go, get out of here, scram for this seat! Hurry, go, go!”

“Just this sort of progress and yet all of you are still clamoring that you want to go wander the Jianghu? Must I carry you if we go out to battle? Carry you to go throw away your lives!? Eh?! Right now you still don’t know what the circumstances are outside, right?”

“All of you, go keep practicing!”

“Half a year later, if I don’t see remarkable improvement, you should all give up and commit suicide by knocking into a block of tofu, a clean attempt! At least if you die this way, it’s less disgraceful than going out to be killed by outside people!”

Meng Youjiang and the others bowed and scattered like flies.

Each and every one of them was wiping a small amount of spittle off their faces, with lingering fears.

Sir Monarch is really having a heavy authority day, right now he’s already angry to the point of tearing down the heavens and rending the earth!

This one gathering’s admonishment really was extremely intense, like a torrential downpour from the heavens!

But with the truth laid out before their very eyes, not a single person had anything to say. They were left speechless.

Sir Monarch didn’t cultivate in the Life and Death Hall tree fortress for two years, this is a fact, but he departed as an Eternal Life Stage peak. On his return, he had directly soared to Undead Stage rank 8 peak, this is also a fact!

What kind of speed is this?

If you don’t want a bit of face, you could resolutely say that he was a special case, but Sir Monarch’s close female friends, each and every one of them a delicate and pretty young lady, also had achieved that kind of promotion speed before their very eyes!

The people who were guarding the empty Life and Death Hall, such an amazing cultivation place, were unexpectedly still inferior to others in cultivation…

This… What did this say?

Although in the bottom of their hearts, they also silently criticized, ‘You are all monster talents, we just, just, aren’t comparable…’

But, they also clearly knew in their hearts that their current cultivation pace was precisely that so-called monster talent top quality…

After each of the big leaders had returned, their hearts were unwilling. Naturally, they all grabbed their head subordinates and chewed them out, unburdening their hearts of that kind of fire. Afterwards, with an intense campaign, they put out the new cultivation assignments!

Of course, each and every one of them arranged similarly towards topping the competition!

All of the smaller leaders had cold sweat steadily flowing on their faces, not sure if they wished they were immortal or dead. They had the intuition that dreaming of immortality was as stupid as being drunk.

“Head, this… this mission is just fundamentally impossible to complete…”

“This… this fundamentally isn’t possible to achieve…”

Meng Youjiang, Chi Huo, Bu Xiangfeng and the others’ faces went gloomy. “Impossible? Can’t achieve? I will inform you, even if it is something you can’t achieve you have to give me that achievement! Do you know what a death order is? It precisely lets you make the impossible become possible how?! You either achieve your breakthrough or you just walk into the fire and enter the demons as you practice yourself to death! Each and every one of you slackers just hurry up and scram, don’t follow me again to grumble about what you can or can’t achieve! In any case, if we don’t get results on time and I get admonished in front of Sir Monarch again, I’ll skin each and every one of you alive!”

“…”

Many subordinates exhaustedly scattered like flies, concentrating on using every second to the fullest to cultivate. The atmosphere was unprecedented.

Ye Xiao actually wasn’t being inhumane and pressing on them for no reason. He started to refine large quantities of pills for a long time, to the point of neglecting sleep and forgetting to eat. This time, in the Wind Snow Ice Heaven, he had obtained spirit materials. Although the quantity wasn’t high, the quality was unusually high. It was actually even more outstanding than the first-rate spirit materials in the Ten Thousand Medicine Mountain. Making medicine with it could be said to be sufficient…
